Horoscope for Friday, February 20, 2026
Moon Alert
There are no restrictions to shopping or important decisions today. The moon is in Aries.
Aries (March 21-April 19)
Today, the moon is in your sign, bringing you a bit of extra good luck. However, both Saturn and Neptune are also lined up in your sign, which can make you self-critical or disappointed in yourself for some reason. Secretly, you might have heroic expectations, which are tough to live up to.
Taurus (April 20-May 20)
For some reason, you might feel self-critical today. Cut yourself some slack. Saturn is lined up with Neptune, and those two planets are so different they don't even like to be in the same sentence. Saturn's reality combined with Neptunian idealism leads to disappointment.
Gemini (May 21-June 20)
Fortunately, you look great in the eyes of others because the sun and Venus are high in your chart, which is flattering to you. Meanwhile, today you might feel disappointed in a friend or a group. Or they might be disappointed in you. Or everyone’s disappointed! This too shall pass.
Cancer (June 21-July 22)
Be careful about judging parents, bosses and VIPs today unless you’re facing blatant abuse of authority because many people feel disappointed in authority figures. Make sure your expectations are realistic.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)
This is the classic day to be disappointed in your ideals as they relate to religion, the government, universities or any institution where you expect high standards. Today you might feel disillusioned. Perhaps this is a wake-up call to investigate and get more information.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
It would be wise to postpone important financial decisions, especially concerning inheritances, shared property, taxes, and debt for another day because your thinking might be confused today. Give yourself 48 hours to have room for a sober second thought.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
Relationships are important to you because you are a people person. You like to have others in your life. Today someone close might disappoint you, but perhaps you should ask yourself: Did I express my expectations? Unexpressed expectations almost always lead to disappointment.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
Be gentle with co-workers and customers today because it's easy to jump on someone if you think they made a mistake. Possibly, the reverse is true, and someone might be jumping on you today. No one is perfect. We all goof up. Be tolerant and kind and hope that others will be this way with you.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
Romance might disappoint today. Likewise, your relations with your kids might discourage you. In part, this might be because we tend to set the bar too high when it comes to our expectations of others. Yet, when it comes to our own actions, we expect understanding and sympathy.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
You can be a perfectionist — a quality that might lead to disappointment in a family member today, or conversely, someone being disappointed in you. Don't get hung up on this. Look for common understanding and common courtesy. Everyone benefits.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
Be careful because with fiery Mars in your sign, you're pumped! However, Saturn and Neptune are muddying the waters in the part of your chart that influences your thinking and your everyday world. This means even though you're confused, you're still raring to go. Not good. Take a beat.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)
Financial matters, or anything involving your possessions or something you own, are subject to confusion today — at least in your mind. Therefore, this is a poor day to make important financial decisions, especially about buying or selling. Forewarned is forearmed.
If today is your birthday
